黑芝麻糊
This recipe makes 2 bowls of sesame paste.
Ingredients:
30g glutinous rice
30g black sesame seeds
40g rock sugar (about 8% of water)
550ml water
Method:
1. Soak glutinous rice for a few hours or overnight. Drain thereafter and discard the water ( or use it to water plants).
2. Toast the black sesame seeds in a pan over very low heat and keep stirring them until they are slightly popping. This takes around 3 mins.
3. Transfer the sesame seeds to the blender. Add in the glutinous rice and 150ml water. Blend until you get a smooth mixture.
4. Pour the mixture into a pot and add the remaining 400ml water. Cook the mixture over low heat on the stove, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. Note: the sesame paste is quite creamy. Increase the amount of water if you prefer less creamier paste.
5. Turn off the heat and add in rock sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Note: increase the amount of rock sugar if you prefer sweeter sesame paste.
6. Ready to serve!
